This is just the latest in my long line of Jitterbug yarns. I have knit many pair of socks, as well as hats and baby things with this yarn. I find it knits up nicely, is a good weight and washes well. My experience with this yarn has always been positive.

I used this yarn on a shawl, teaming it with Malabrigo Boticelli Red. The tans in this yarn are exquisite: reminds me of chinchilla fur. Reds blend from lovely pink to deep brn red.
Yarn worked up beautifully, soft, and doesn't split.

I have used Jitterbug yarn for the past four years and have never been disappointed in it. The colors are unique, inspiring, and interesting the socks and fingerless gloves created from it are wearable art. Knit on US size 2 needles, the fabric shows fine detail and is dense but stretchy, depending on the pattern. Knit on US size 3 needles, the fabric is looser but still keeps pattern detail. This is fantastic yarn and I wait with interest to see what new color ways Colinette will introduce next. I have used ten skeins of this yarn thus far and have another 15 in my stash.

This yarn is a pleasure to work with. In fact, it's one of my favorites, even though I'm sometimes surprised by the colors when the skeins arrive in the mail. Normally the website's photographs provide me with an excellent representation of what I'm going to end up with. Not so with Jitterbug. But while the colors might be unexpected, they're still nice, and I'm always happy with the socks they produce.

A friend gave me a skein of Jitterbug 2 years ago in a color that I never would have bought. I was skeptical because I heard of the short yardage in the older skeins. I knit a sock toe up with a Cat Bordhi pattern. These are my favorite socks. They are soft and spongy to the step. I would recommend Jitterbug anytime you want a warm and comfy sock.
